Not just Chinese goods, but Chinese components. That cost will be passed on to the consumer. There are A LOT of things that aren’t made at all in the US. If you thought cost of living was high under Biden…

The Witcher and Cyberpunk I’ll give you, but Mass Effect definitely fades to black before getting to actual sex, the other two are mods. I wasn’t saying sex in games doesn’t exist, but if we’ve gotta go back several decades for a handful examples, that doesn’t feel like something that’s “common.”

Accurate, but one series does not make something common.
- Comment on Actors demand action over 'disgusting' video game sex scenes 2 months ago:
Sex scenes are common in modern games - and are often made by filming human actors who are then digitised into game characters.
Is “common” referring to cringey low budget Steam games? I don’t think I’ve seen any sort of on screen simulated sex in a game, ever. Granted I tend to only play well publicized indie games and larger releases. But how common is this? Am I out of the loop?

This is Robert Budd Dwyer, a Pennsylvania politician who committed suicide during a live press conference in 1987. This photo is from that press conference, the trombone has been photoshopped over the gun he used.
For the 90s musical connection, this incident was the inspiration for Filter’s song “Hey Man Nice Shot.”

It is, but it’s sold out. They’re a bunch of other weird shit on the site, but the cigarette is the best.

I mean, when Al Gore won, he still lost. I don’t know how many people are worried about a legitimate Trump victory…
